Beneteau Gran Turismo 36 first look: French giant adds new outboard model

The Gran Turismo range has reinvented itself more times than David Bowie, and with inboard and outboard versions available this brand new 40-footer has been adapted to meet the recent demand for outboard propulsion.

Twin 350s are the weapons of choice; the inboard version is fitted with a pair of 300hp diesels for a top speed of 32 knots.

Beneteau and its designer, Andreani Design, has worked some magic in the cockpit to create three distinct areas on a hull this long.
